Top 10 Tuesday of Groovy Tunes: Dionne Warwick walks on by

Each week I feature 10 groovy tunes that have appeared on Billboard's Hot 100 chart during the last 50+ years. You can vote for your three favorites, and the five with the most votes move on to the following week when five new songs will be added to the list.

Last week the Mamas & the Papas remained at the top with "California Dreamin'", which received 27 votes out of the 150 cast. And this week they will be challenged by Dionne Warwick, R.E.M. and Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66.1) "California Dreamin'"/The Mamas & the Papas (Last Week #1, Week 12) - 17 weeks on Billboard's Hot 100 chart in 1966

2) "(Last Night) I Didn't Get to Sleep at All"/The 5th Dimension (LW #2, W4) - #13 the week of July 1, 1972

3) "Walking on Sunshine"/Katrina and the Waves (W2) - #11 the week of June 29, 1985
